Acuvue

Acuvue is a brand of contact lenses that is owned by Johnson & Johnson. Acuvue lenses are notable for their comfort and clarity, and they are available in a variety of different types to suit different vision correction needs.

History

The Acuvue brand was first introduced in 1987 by Frontier Contact Lens Company, a small company based in Jacksonville, Florida. In 1996, the company was acquired by Johnson & Johnson, and the Acuvue brand has since become one of the most popular brands of contact lenses worldwide.

Types of Acuvue Lenses

Acuvue offers a wide range of contact lenses, including:

• Acuvue Oasys: These lenses are designed for maximum comfort and are suitable for people who suffer from dry eyes.
• Acuvue 2: These are bi-weekly disposable lenses that offer high levels of comfort and clarity.
• Acuvue 1-Day Moist: These are daily disposable lenses that are designed to keep the eyes moist and comfortable throughout the day.
• Acuvue Vita: These are monthly disposable lenses that are designed for reliable, superior comfort all month long.

Technology

Acuvue lenses are made using a variety of proprietary technologies. For example, the HydraClear technology used in Acuvue Oasys lenses helps to keep the lenses moist and comfortable, even in dry environments. The Lacreon technology used in Acuvue 1-Day Moist lenses creates a long-lasting cushion of moisture to help keep the eyes comfortable throughout the day.

Safety and Care

Like all contact lenses, Acuvue lenses should be used with care. It's important to clean and disinfect the lenses regularly using a proper contact lens solution. It's also important to replace the lenses as recommended by your optometrist to avoid the risk of eye infection.
